Chapter 338: Ten Fruit Ability User
Marshall D.Teach possesses top-tier physical potential on The Great Sea.
Even without eating a devil fruit, relying solely on body techniques and developing his physical potential, he could become a top-tier Strongman on The Great Sea.
Unfortunately, in order to wait for the Dark-Dark Fruit, he had been hiding his strength on the Whitebeard Pirates, wasting over twenty years.
In Hades's view, this was completely not worth it.
However, pinning a lifetime's hope on a single devil fruit, possessing such determination, also represented the powerful inner strength of That Person.
To pose a direct threat to the World Government and the Marines, one must possess an unprecedentedly vast Faction like the Rocks Pirates.
The Flying Pirates have such potential, and Shiki "The Golden Lion" also possesses that kind of aura.
As for others, they fall a bit short.
In the future, the Whitebeard Pirates, during the Summit War, including their Affiliated Pirate Groups, possessed a Pirate Army of fifty thousand.
And this was not the entire military strength of the Whitebeard Pirates; some weaker Pirates were not forced to come, it was entirely voluntary.
Moreover, the vast Territory of the Whitebeard Pirates also required military strength to guard.
But in Hades's eyes, if the number of Pirates wasn't two to three hundred thousand, they wouldn't truly have the ability to launch a full-scale war against the Marines and the World Government.
This standard is based on the Rocks Pirates.
The war against the World Government also explained everything.
Leaving aside the Marines' hundreds of thousands of military strength, the Army alone could mobilize over a million cannon fodder at any time.
The Great Sea is not yet chaotic to that degree; the largest Faction is the Flying Pirates, and they haven't reached their true peak yet.
After the Great Pirate Era, the number of Pirates across the entire Great Sea will inflate by more than ten times.
Of course, the most important thing is strength.
And Teach, similarly, has the ability to smoothly take over the throne left behind by the Flying Pirates.
Hades firmly believes this.
In his mind, he already has a plan targeting Teach's special physique.
If successful, it will absolutely make him an unprecedented super Monster.
Dark-Dark Fruit - Munch-Munch Fruit - Yamata no Orochi Fruit
Teach's special physique can accommodate three devil fruits.
The Munch-Munch Fruit allows one to use the devil fruit ability of an Ability User who has been swallowed into the user's internal space.
The Dark-Dark Fruit can plunder devil fruits, and similarly, it can suppress the ability of an Ability User swallowed into the user's body.
Combining the two devil fruits can maximize the role of the Munch-Munch Fruit.
An Ability User imprisoned in the internal space still possesses the ability to resist.
This requires the consciousness to suppress them.
Therefore, Teach's existence is special, even irreplicable.
Such a special physique has not been unheard of in thousands of years of history.
Whether becoming a Dual Fruit Ability User or a Triple Fruit Ability User.
At the same time, only one ability can be used.
Perhaps childhood experiences caused Teach to possess triple personality, allowing him to use three abilities simultaneously.
Without his knowledge, Hades sent people to collect everything about him since birth, arranged for psychologists to analyze it, and even secretly drew several tubes of blood.
He basically understood everything about him.
This also made Hades somewhat relieved; such an existence is simply irreplicable.
The existence of triple personality was originally an accident.
If it could be replicated, that would be a terrifying thing.
However, if one wants to use them simultaneously, three is the limit.
To solve this problem, the Yamata no Orochi Fruit is needed.
The Yamata no Orochi has eight heads, and the extra seven heads represent seven consciousnesses.
These seven consciousnesses can each control one ability.
In other words, Teach can become an unprecedented Ten Fruit Devil Fruit Ability User.
Simply put, three personalities, with the Dark-Dark Fruit, Munch-Munch Fruit, and Yamata no Orochi Fruit each occupying one.
The other seven heads of the Yamata no Orochi occupy seven.
Teach's special physique, Teach's triple personality, the Dark-Dark Fruit, and the Munch-Munch Fruit are all indispensable, jointly shaping such a super Monster.
That is to say, the Yamata no Orochi Fruit can serve as a substitute.
However, the so-called Nine-Headed Bird or Nine-Headed Snake Fruit is unknown where it is, and has not appeared for hundreds of years.
As for the Yamata no Orochi Fruit, there is one readily available, which has now appeared on The Great Sea.
That is the Pirate cultivated by the Kurozumi Family, the Yamata no Orochi Fruit Ability User.
As for scheming against the Kurozumi Family, Hades has no psychological burden whatsoever.
By that time, the only two members of the Kurozumi Family he had contact with, Kurozumi Semimaru and his sister, might already be dead.
Moreover, from the beginning, he never took the Kurozumi Clan seriously.
How terrifying it would be when ten types of devil fruit abilities are combined into one.
If it truly succeeds as envisioned, Teach's rise will be unstoppable.
Coupled with the terrifying ability to hunt devil fruits, the Faction he establishes will rapidly expand at an unimaginable speed in a short time.
What if Teach loses control?
Hades has considered this question, but he hasn't worried about it.
If a Pirate Crew is formed in the future, it must develop quietly for a period of time.
As soon as this news is exposed.
He will absolutely become a public enemy of the World.
He will instantly become an existence that all Factions hope to eliminate.
Hades has absolute confidence in his own strength.
Possessing so many devil fruits will naturally cause distraction, making it impossible to fully develop the devil fruits.
Furthermore, when using the ability of an imprisoned Ability User.
Whatever the degree of development of that Ability User, that is the limit of Teach's usage; there is no possibility of further development.
In essence, possessing so many devil fruits already cuts off the path of devil fruit awakening.
Although he may become very powerful, possessing various means, even arguably unstoppable.
He will ultimately be unable to surpass Rocks D.Xebec.
Because Haki reigns supreme over everything!
How could Hades create an enemy he cannot deal with?
If given time, perhaps he could develop three devil fruits to their limit.
Unfortunately, that would take a long time, and whether he can even live that long is a question.
When he loses his role, it will be the time of his death.
At that time, the devil fruits he possesses will all become Hades's spoils.
By Teach's side, Hades's Child is also following.
Lubock alone is not enough.
Hades can roughly guess what degree Lubock might reach in the future.
Unless he obtains a very powerful devil fruit, otherwise, Quasi-Admiral is basically his limit.
Even so, he is already a top-tier Strongman on The Great Sea.
Next, Hades will also arrange for his Children to follow Teach.
Secretly, he will also continuously guide Teach's growth.
Leading him down the path Hades hopes he will take.
After returning to the Kronos Kingdom.
Life was far less eventful than during the time of the Rocks Pirates.
After the second Pirate World Expo and Sword Tournament.
Every day, besides daily training, Hades focused his efforts on the Kingdom's management, sending people to negotiate cooperation with various Factions and the Four Seas.
Developing commerce and various industries, spreading around the World, blooming everywhere.
Seeing such achievements made him feel very satisfied.
Occasionally paying attention to news on The Great Sea, even if something minor happened, it didn't involve too much of his energy.
The conflicts on The Great Sea had gradually begun, but they had nothing to do with him.
In his heart, he was actually somewhat looking forward to someone coming to find trouble with him.
Cultivating Marshall D.Teach could be said to be a whim of his, adding some seasoning to his peaceful life.
Teach is currently only seven years old and doesn't have that many thoughts yet.
How could he possibly imagine that someone had started scheming against him so early?
